came in from the North on the after
noon train and registered in the one.

the list, probably because he was the
talleSt man Of the three; then followed
j. a. Ward, auditor of the territory, and
last but not least by several pounds
avoirdupGiS came Louis K. Church, gov
ern or of the territory. The governor,
as usual. would not talk eXtrav agantly
to the newspaper representatives VIII
lowered around him. He never talks
unless he has something to say. He
claims that he mas the trustees of the
Yankton insane asylum where he wants
them and proposes to have his way
about the manner in which affairs at
that Institution are conducted il it takes
several months and few legal fights to
carry out his Intentions. His visit to
st. Paul at this time, according to his
testimony when croSS-eXamined. is to
meet President Cleveland He said:
1--WE wanted him to visit Dakota, but he
wouldn't, and / concluded if Mahomet

Gov. Church are warm personal friends,
and would probably remain so if poll
tics was suddenly wiped out of exist
ence. The Dakota executive always re-
fers to him .affectionately as 1.-The old
man.
Auditor Ward is here with the same
purpose that prompted the governor to
come, and he says he doesn't propose
to go home until he has shaken the hand
OF the chief executive. and he saws
when he gets hold of his hand he will
give him grip that will leave Dakota
impression on his mind that will last
him until he reaches home.
j. ID. Lawler, the future treasurer of
the territory, modest yet diplomatic,
says he came up from Mitchell for the
express purpose of paying his respects
to the president and his wife. He
seemed to be trifle worried about his
chances of getting a look at the 'exeeu-
tive and his wife without being damned.

THE TRUE KNIGHT.
A Sermon by the Rev. w. S. Vail
Yesterday Morning.

Yesterday Morning.
sThe True Knights of Labor was the
subject of an eloquent sermon by Rev.
W. s. Vail in the WacOutl street Univer-
salist chapel yesterday morning. The
discourse was full of sound sense and
his solution of the labor problem will
be interesting to every one. His text
was: Matthew XII, %:
Come with me, all We that labor and are
heavy laden, and will give you rest.

ject have chosen word of eXplana-
ton may be we'll, said the speaker. |
believe that the great work of the pull
pit is to discuss the great social problem
of the day in an able, fearless. and con-
ScientiouS manner. A great meeting Of
that gigantic body. the Knights of Labor,
is now being held in Minneapolis; and /
purpose to discuss some of the questions
that naturally arise in that convention.
''The great poet of the North describes
in one of his WORKS an English meadow
in olden times. A camp, with flags,
shields and tents ON one side, and in the
distance another body of warriors. The
flourish of trumpetS in one is answered
by the bugle blasts of the other. Then
a knight in full armOr rides out from
the camp and up to the largest and
strongest man in the opposing force.
The challenge was accepted and the
fray begins. That is an illustration of
knighthood. In the Middle Ages the
knight donned his armor and went out
to do battle for truth, purity, and to de-
fend the weak. A knight then
MEANT A CHAMPION,

champion of the man who labors.

Nearly all mankind are obliged to labor,
Opment go hand in hand with sobriety
and industry. Taking this ground, and
believing that the true Knights of Labor
is that kind of person, we must elm

the true Knight. would
eliminate that class of men
who are always dissatisfied with
their condition, those men who get to-
gether in beer saloon and resolve
that there is a desperate conflict be-
tween capital and labor. and especially
that man, once poor. now rich, who has
forgotten the time when he was pinched
by poverty. Moses was a true Knight
of Labor, because he was not ashamed
of his humble origin, and left his high
position to lead his people out of bond
age. While | honor all corporations
and men who have the ability to set in
motion machinery and embark in enter
prises that give employment to large
numbers of men, must eliminate from
this list all those great combinations Of
capital that seek to control the prices
of even the neceSsaries of life.
''All men, on the contrary, who labor
with hand or brain, who employ capital
to give work to the people, or do any
legitimate business, are the true
Knights of Labor. The question then
is, not one to be settled by a convention
of the world, and the great employer
stands hand to hand with his laborer,
then it shall come to pass that the
words of the great poet will be true

tory, dwelling particularly on its rapid
increase in power, members and intiu-
ence, these latter days, particularly in
the United States, where everything is
submitted to the American test of an
alysis and nothing is approved unless it
can stand on an intellectual basis. Thus
Christianity has been subjected to an
intellectual test in this country that it
has nowhere else undergone. The re-
suit is that 100000 of the supposed Co.
100000 population of this country are in
communion with Christian churches,
either Protestant or Catholic If Chris
tianity shows such remarkable vitality
and power when suffering from weak
ening of the brain and Justification of the
heart, what would be the grandeur of its
achievements when cured of those dis
eases? Christianity is the only intel
lectual religion of the world, all others
being superstition. 1t is, therefore,
kingdom which cannot be moved.

DIR. Buckley is a man rather below the
medium height, has a beard that covers
all his face except the chin, and has a
high forehead. He looks like what he
is-a deep thinker. He took his text

Being sent to Annapoli, Hospital, he
left the service by reason of disability. Mr..
Palmer stood by the side of Gen. Conner
